Tuesday's Notebook

June 26, 1985

-- Chicago Cubs catcher Jody Davis' health has improved, and he could be back by the end of the week, Cubs Manager Jim Frey said. Davis has been undergoing treatment for a viral infection that has sidelined him the last six games. However, both Frey and General Manager Dallas Green refused to rule out acquiring another catcher as insurance should Davis not continue to improve from a viral infection that has sidelined him for the last five games. Davis left the club in St. Louis on Friday to undergo blood tests at a Chicago hospital. Davis was diagnosed as suffering from anemia and internal bleeding in addition to the viral infection.
